Is there a manual to cross-compile Qt5 for OrangePI?

Haponov

smth like this https://wiki.qt.io/RaspberryPi_Beginners_Guide is much needed.
There is such a topic here http://orangepi.pp.ua/index.php?topic=149.0 but the solution seems to be not working

No, but setting it up pretty simple, but you shouldn't need that.. Why are you not getting it from the repos?

I've spent a week trying to create Qt cross-compiling environment for orangePI (tried on Lubuntu and Raspberian) using linaro toolchain and gave up for RPI where there're working manuals for this purpose - so I'm in no hurry.

did you install Qt on OrangePI yourself? simply by apt-get?? I don't want to even try it - sounds unreal. And I need to develop software on my PC and then deploy it to orange - how will that be possible?

I almost always prefer to compile....

Why are you not using gcc?
